Bernardo Silva

He won't go and I've said it all summer. Soriano said our window is done and I believe him. It makes no sense whatsoever to weaken our squad at this stage of the window. Bernardo may want to go but he won't sulk if he doesn't and he will give his all for the club for another season.

I do think next summer will be the right time though. He will have 2 years left on his deal and his value will only go down from here. I'm not convinced he will sign a new deal so we need to plan for life after him. I suspect if we got an offer of around £65m-£70m next year we'd do a deal.

if the PSG thing is true makes me wonder if it’s more to do with money than location

i thought he wanted to be near portugal in a warm climate. paris is hardly a warm place and likewise no closer to portugal either. maybe his missus wants to live in paris
 
This is starting to get annoying, and now it's Bernardo's fault. I am sure the team gave him a fair valuation and if it was met on time, he would leave. Neither were met, so he should just accept he is staying one more season and stop Mendes from creating pressure.

80m valuation was very fair, and if Barcelona nor PSG met it, that's not City problem who gave all the facilities for Bernardo to go.
 
If he goes to PSG, he can leave, if he wants to go, I don't mind. But then Neymar or someone should come in his place.

I get the attraction of Paris. But from a sporting point of view, how any top player would want to leave the premier league and play in that shite league is beyond me.

It does make you wonder. I get the love affair with Barca, but PSG would make it more a case of just get me out of here. Mendes wants that big commission before its too late. Like why would Nunes leave Sporting and another year in the CL to join Wolves? He might have gotten in with a much bigger club next Summer. Puzzling...

He also isn’t in the business of hamstringing us for the season so regardless of what’s written in the press over the next week he’s going nowhere.

He won't stand in his way if someone matches our valuation.

I don't want him to go but some people are letting there emotions get in the way of what's going on here. Clearly Bernie is now pushing it hard through his agents mouthpiece in the media.
 
Disappointing this - Castles is Mendes' mouthpiece and this is just vicarious twerking from Bernardo. If he stays, I'm sure he'll still give his all etc but this is just ridiculous
 
It's too late for us to buy a replacement but what we can and should do is to trade him.
If PSG and Barcelona are the options I will ask for Neymar or De Jong. We don't need unhappy player in the team and one of the two I mentioned will be a grade replacement
 
If Bernardo goes to PSG good luck to him. I don't think the move is for football reasons. City need to hold out for 100m euros minimum. No compromises. Hopefully he stays and gets his head down.
 
Just think he doesn't like the UK. Can understand PSG as he's lived in France before. It seems like it's always been a personal issue not club related
